The Genesee Conference of Con-
gregational churches has been hold
ing its 4ad annual meeting this week
at Bancroft. The new church build
ing is pretty little house, heated by
furnace, and seated with folding,
perforated wood, chairs, like those in
use in many opera houses, and we
think, in the best seated churches.
Its seating capacity is about 200.
With the aid of over $50 straight ten
hour day days work by the pastor,
Rev. Richard Lewis, the work was
carried through. 1t is good thing
we'll done. The conference was quite
largely attended, there being nearly
or quite one hundred persons. All
phases of church work except the
Bible school received its usual at.
tention, but with more than usual
interest. The Woman's Foreign and
Home Mission work each had an
afternoon devoted TO them, and the
general cause of Home Missions a
full evening with excellent addresses
from Supt. Warren and Mrs. Lane,
pres. w. H. M. society supplement-
ed by few remarks by Rev. G. H.
Wilson. Reports from the churches
were full of interest, showing a
healthful growth in most of them, and
special religious interest in some.
The conference benevolences have
risen, and the outlook is full Of hope,
such was the opinion Of those who
listened.
The various societies from the
Owosso church were represented, and
reports from each were carried to
the meeting. About fifteen persons
went from Owosso to the gath
erings of the societies. Woman's F.
M. society was represented by Mrs.
l.. E. Gould; Ready Helpers, Miss
Lizzie Comstock;;' Y Dung Ladies' II.
M, Band, Miss Irene Smith; Y. p. S.
c. E., Miss May Williams. These
were all backed by good force of
workers. Wednesday evening was
devoted to conference on the Y. p.
S. c. E., of which seven societies ex
lists in the conference, all in good
and healthful condition. A delega
ton from Perry came 10 that meeting.
1t was on the whole one of the most
interesting and hopeful sessions IL a
long while.
The next meeting will be held at
Clio, at which time the Bible School
will receive more special attention.

outcry About Alleged Hospital Abuses.

New YORK, Feb 26.-Ill feeling has been
aroused IN the Woman's Hospital by an aecusa-
ton that unwarranted freedom has there been
enjoyed in the matter Of physical examinations
of young patients The institution is old and
honored. The late DR.. Marion Sims was the
founder. and many eminent physicians and sur
geons have been associated there, along with
numerous students. The alumni held a recent
meeting in which Dr. Reynold ". Wilcox. M.
A., made an address on gynecology, in tho
course of which he said: II would have it an
established rule that no examination of an un-
married woman should be made unless with the
unanimous decision of a consultation, one of tho
physicians, at least. to be general practitioner

although the matter was suppressed until now
| from publication. President /. A. Emmet WAS
in the chair. He asked Dr. Wilcox ii he meant
to charge that the staff of the Woman's Hospital
were debauchers of girl patients. Dr. Wilcox
replied that he meant no more than his language
expressed. DR.. A. Palmer Dudley said that tho
| speaker had been recklessy sweeping 1t was
possible that abuses existed, and suitable pre-
cautions against license should be taken; but ne
